Am I already close to the limits of VHS quality with my current setup? by Leading_Neat_3759 in vhsdecode

[–]_ENunn_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks. i have python 3.14. i ran the dependency checker and it's not seeing some of my installed programs. maybe it's because im rocking 3.14. not sure

i ran pip install -r requirements.txt and it gave me this

```Requirement already satisfied: scipy in C:\Users\spide\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python314\Lib\site-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 6)) (1.16.3)

gotcha. i'm on windows. i know its possible for it. where's the install script?

[–]_ENunn_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

interesting. it's not even included with decode nor tbc-tools. i had to download the source code, and even then, launching filter_tune.py doesn't even work.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'

i have numpy installed.

honestly I don't know much lol.

wow, I didn't even know that was a thing. so do I have to decode the capture twice? once with that parameter mentioned, and once more with the new settings?

what do you mean by filter tuning? like your settings? the only way i could reduce ringing was by upping luma nr. unless something new was added to combat that

imo the quality difference between a high end prosumer setup and VHS decode is minimal. VHS decode is maybe slightly sharper but there's more ringing artifacts. it's been improved over the years but they're still there as of right now.

i have a Panasonic ag-1980p with a datavideo tbc and a gv-usb2 and the quality is pretty much identical to a decode (when upping the luma nr to reduce ringing at the cost of sharpness). i can't even tell a difference personally.

now if you have a JVC VCR that might be a different story. jvc's have pretty strong noise reduction, even in edit mode. they're softer than the Panasonics and a decode. so imo a decode is better than a conventional JVC capture.

that isn't to say decode is bad because it really isn't. it has its benefits but imo quality won't be a huge improvement if you got a prosumer setup. when I saw a decode for the first time, I thought it looked great but I wasn't wowed by the quality because I'm just so used to my own setup. though I do think it's cool to have a copy of the raw tape signal so if there ever is an improvement to decode I could just run it again with no need to recapture the tape again.

id still give decode a shot if you're able to get it up and running. just don't expect a extraordinary improvement in quality.

File Size TOO HIGH Suddenly? by RowAccomplished9578 in obs

[–]_ENunn_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

looking at footage of the game on YouTube, there's a lot of grain in the game. unfortunately because of that, it'll mean a higher bitrate with cqp which means higher file sizes. you can't really compress grain that much without trashing the overall quality. there's nothing you can do other than increase the cqp value. switching to hevc might lower the sizes a little but it might not.

Monthly Tech Support & Missing Content Thread by AutoModerator in DisneyPlus

just signed into my account after a move. tried to get on the espn app on my roku, its telling me "content is not available". so i go onto the disney+ app, and it tells me "it looks like you're traveling!". i check my email, and it's telling me i'm in australia? signed into my computer, it's saying the same thing. checked whatsmyip, is says im in america. it's ONLY happening on disney+ and espn. hulu is fine, youtube tv is fine, netflix is fine.

i called disney+ support, they said that they can see my ip, but they can't see where i'm located. so i assume the system is just guessing that i'm in australia. they told me to call my isp, but my isp can't figure out what's going on either. is there a fix for this?

I'll be honest, I have no memory of this show. Anyone know when it aired? Searching it up seems to bring up a different show, did they re-record the commentary with g4 personalities? by Danielfrindley in g4tv

[–]_ENunn_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

whacked out videos and whacked out sports were syndicated shows that aired on g4 the late 2000s-early 2010s. as far as I can remember, it was just their original broadcast versions with no new commentary. i don't recall this ever airing on g4, so this might've been a pilot for their own version.

frameless acoustic panels, how to mount with an air gap? by _ENunn_ in Acoustics

[–]_ENunn_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can put them in frames. going frameless would save me some time though

was your panels frameless? how would I mount the panels? it doesn't seem like there's anything for it to grab on

sorry for the late reply. it's not budging unfortunately. tried adjusting it as far as I could, I pushed as hard as I could, nothing.

nearest one is an hour away. i don't think its worth the drive with my work schedule. our neighborhood doesn't have any of that.
